Betting Trends for vs
Colorado State's drubbing at Michigan came as no surprise and revealed little about what to expect from the Rams going forward, but Middle Tennessee is coming off an embarrassing defeat at the hands of a James Madison squad playing its first season as a Division I Football Bowl Subdivision team. JMU was a very good Football Championship Subdivision team, winning the title in 2016 and losing in the championship game in 2017 and 2019, but was only favored by 4.5 points. We like the Rams to take this one. Final Score Prediction: Colorado State wins and covers 35-23.
